Duke Caribbean

Duke Nukem's The Beach Episode

This is my favorite Duke Nukem 3D expansion by Sunstorm Interactive. All the weapons are pallete swapped to fit the theme, and the enemies are all dressed up too.

Surf some waves, soak up some sun. Bring your super soaker to the water park. And then there's some lost ruins and junk? Nothing every really follows up the plot of official expansion packs to my knowledge.

Amongst the smatterings of not even half finished Duke Nukem maps in the DNF2001 leak there were a lot of fragments of Duke's penthouse. I thought it would be fun to recreate one of these fragments in the Doom 3 engine with borrowed assets from the leak, and the results weren't half bad.

Duke Nukem 3D through EDuke32 is freakin' awesome. A massive step up from the regular DOS version (still love you dosbox).

Thanks @jeze3D!

The future of 3D Gaming will never be the same - prepare yourself for the Ultimate Slugfest!

Happy 28th anniversary 🎂

"Unlike anything we have played before."

"Look up and down!" 🤯

"A graphical Masterpiece!"

"RemoteRidicule™ allows players to send pre-recorded taunts to their opponents".

I bought the (free) shareware version for 5,99£ in London's fancy Virgin Megastore - I know.. 🙈 but at least I've got the CDROM in a box to show you 😄

Shareware version 1.0 of Duke Nukem 3D was first released on this day (January 29) in 1996.

Today, you can download it or play it online in your browser (both free) here, via one of my all-time favorite sites on the web (that also has SO MANY other games), DOSGames.com:
https://dosgames.com/game/duke-nukem-3d.

Hail to the King, baby.

Duke it Out in D.C.

Oh no! Those alien bastards (from space) invaded Washington DC!

Duke Nukem 3D with a U.S. Government theme like you might imagine in any action film taking place there.

Made by Sunstorm Interactive who also came up with deer hunting games. (Yes really)

So yeah um, the levels are okay. I especially enjoy the Smithsonian level since I like wandering around in a museum.

I was always a geek.

In Windoze, I'd drop to DOS to move around.
When I encountered Win95, I had to wait?
"IT IS NOW SAFE TO TURN OFF YOUR COMPUTER"

I made the on/off decisions, I didn't like it already, so I uninstalled it and went back my old DOS6.

Life was good. Duke Nukem ran on DOS.

We'd have had a blast...especially as I'm ex-Royal Naval Reserve too!

From memory, I had three boot options, one each for games, spreadsheets/word processing, etc., and systems stuff and coding 🤔

I miss DOS too 😢

@TCMuffin We had restrictions on Personal computers at work, and software, such as shareware was also not allowed on Government machines. To circumvent the rules, I brought in a computer for my desk with no hard drive. It just sat there looking bulky. But boot from a floppy disk to a BBS and I'd check messages on my lunch hour. They had no understanding in those days.. They put me in charge of IT Security after that

Duke Nukem 3D

The premiere 3D Realms first person shooter.

You got an inventory and interesting weapons.
Duke himself will quip plentifully and make various references to pop culture.

I'll point out ESRB's M rating which includes strong sexual content. It is suggestive without actually being pornographic.

I recommend the Atomic Edition over the 20th Anniversary incidentally (not that those extra levels are bad).

Today (December 3rd) in 1993, Duke Nukem II was released for DOS. 30 years of this killer installment of the king. It's only one of the greatest platformers ever made.

Edit: totally forgot you can play it FREE via DOSGames.com (DOSBox): https://www.dosgames.com/game/duke-nukem-2
